Update CME - Internal Medicine and Primary Care
Constantly updated guidelines on treatment and management of these conditions necessitate primary care providers to continuously update their education from different knowledge sources. Interaction with human experts specifically for complex medical questions has been cited by physicians as a more effective mode of knowledge transfer. This activity will support one of the goals of the Department of Health and Human Services in providing primary care providers better tools and resources to improve care of individuals with chronic medical conditions.
